Kiyoshi Yamaya, a jazz musician who was a member of the "Modern Jazz Trio" with Norio Maeda and Keitaro Miho and contributed to many developments in the field of arrangement as well as composition. This work is a oriental exotic synth piece that visit from Hokkaido to Okinawa, South Korea, China, Philippines, Java, and India through Min'yō/ethnic music produced in 1984, after his representative works "Japanese Melody Series" featuring such as Ryukyu, Tsugaru Osorezan released in the 70s. The sounds was created by synthesizing various instrumental sounds on a synthesizer, storing them in a computer, and then assembling them into a one tune, a daunting task. Also recommend to listen to the crazy arrangements that occasionally appear in the nostalgia oriental ethno sound. Beautiful copy with obi,insert.

前田憲男、三保敬太郎との”モダンジャズ三人会”のメンバーでもあり作曲に加えアレンジの分野でも多くの発展に貢献したジャズ音楽家山屋清。本作は70年代に発表された代表作でもある琉球や津軽・恐山を題材にした「日本の旋律シリーズ」を経て84年に制作された北海道から沖縄、韓国、中国、フィリピン、ジャワ、インドの民謡/民族音楽を通して巡る東洋エキゾチックシンセ絵巻といった様相。シンセサイザーに様々な楽器音を合成しコンピューターに記憶させひとつの曲を組み立てていく気の遠くなるような作業によって出来上がったという渾身作。ノスタルジーなオリエンタル・エスノ・サウンドに時折現れる狂ったアレンジも聴き所。帯、インサート付きの超美品。
